Minimal Logo Animation

Created with Adobe After Effects & LottieFiles

🎯 Project Overview

This project focuses on a Lottie-based minimal logo animation designed for fast, scalable, and interactive web performance. Built in Adobe After Effects and exported through Lottie, the animation maintains premium motion quality with a lightweight file size ideal for websites and mobile apps.

✨ Concept & Motion Flow

The animation starts with a single dot, representing an initial spark of creativity. The dot rotates and multiplies into four, forming dynamic motion lines that converge to reveal the brand logo. As the logo scales up, two leaves gently appear on top, symbolizing growth, sustainability, and innovation β€” all rendered smoothly through Lottie.

πŸŒ€ Animation Process

Built entirely with vector shape layers for perfect Lottie export.
Used trim paths and eased keyframes for clean, fluid motion.
Optimized layers and effects to ensure tiny JSON output without losing visual quality.
Exported with Bodymovin and tested in LottieFiles Preview for cross-platform playback.

βš™οΈ Optimization

Fully vector-based for crisp resolution on all screens.
Transparent background and loop-ready setup.
JSON file size under 1 MB β€” ideal for high-speed web loading.
